also even Juliette could not figure out exactly where she was. she got close. but like Juliette said by the time she figured it out she was gone. As a lot of people know receiving and send email through proxy servers will keep anyone from actually finding out where you are. The other thing you can do is hack someone else machine and and use that to proxy. That would require someone looking for you to find that machine and trace back from their.
We only saw how Juliette was sending the email. We had no idea how Kelly was getting it. For all we know Kelly could have been logging into Nick account and reading it from the send file. That would make the email never have a received IP address plus the email would never be marked as read.
You are right about some points. But I have some comments...
Juliette was able to track Kelly's ip address once from a country in the middle of Europe. So I think Kelly used her own email address and no Nick's.
It is not easy for anyone to connect M to Kelly but it was not necessary. If the royals, for example, hacked Nick's computer and found the emails they would see a lot of emails with normal names and only one with the name M. They would know Nick was trying to hide something behind this letter.
For sure Kelly never used the same computer in the same place to answer her emails. But once having her email address who knows what a Russian hacker payed by the royals would be able to do?
I would the writers would never put this kind of complexity in a show like grimm because internet security is not important in the story. But in real like situation I am pretty sure the royals would use all tools available to find out everything about Nick, including hacking his computer.
Actually, as I said, they did. They used what is called social engineering. The royals hacked Nick's computer not using technical methods, but using social methods: They convinced Juliette to send the email. But they could have hacked Juliette's email address and send the email themselves as if it was sent by Juliette.
